To Raul's Family
My prayers are with all of you. I just found out and am in shock. I just loved Raul. Raul was my Dad's Physical Therapist. When he came into the room, my Dad would just light up. He would energize the whole room with his personality. He was the best at his job. My Dad had several severe strokes and Raul convinced him that he could do more than he thought he could. Raul's personality and energy helped my Dad achieve goals that we thought were impossible. No one and I mean no one made an impact on my Dad like Raul. I have a video that I took with my phone of him working with my dad. His energy and enthusiasm was infectious. We all looked forward to him coming every week. We are all heartbroken. I just cried when I heard. I too suffer from depression. He reminded me of Robin Williams with his infectious personality. I am truly heartbroken for the loss of such a great man. I will always remember Raul. Praying for all of you..... Cherhonda Gilliam (The Candyman's daughter)
